Child Raise Trust

Story

It is estimated that there are 60 million people with disabilities in India alone (PwD). However, disability is not the measure of ability. Every person is different, and every person is unique in their abilities to learn and achieve their dreams. Some are quick learners and excel in multiple fields, but there are others who face certain challenges in learning, physical abilities, communication, behavioural, or even emotional aspects. But these challenges don’t define them. What they need is a helping hand to guide them through these challenges.

The ChildRaise trust is a unique setup that caters to children, adults, caregivers, professionals, and volunteers of people with special needs. Their one of a kind initiative provides information about disability and rehabilitation services.

The problem?

PwD are considered a burden on the family not only emotionally but also financially & socially. When parents realize that they have a child with disability they often don’t know whom they should go to for support & guidance. Even the treating hospitals/ doctors are unable to provide addresses or names of the special schools, sheltered workshops or support groups where the child/PwD can go, once their medical treatment is over. The existing services are isolated. The information is never complete. The parents have to run helter skelter for holistic treatment.

It was to address this information and support gap that ChildRaise Information Services was born.

The mission/ solution

Childraise Trust has a unique acronym to explain its goals and objectives –

RAISE: R-Rehabilitation, A-Awareness, I-Information, S-Support and E-Education empowering children with special needs , adults with disability, their parents, caregivers, professionals and well-wishers. Through ChildRaise Information Services, the Trust endeavours to reach people with disabilities via various telecommunication means that is internet, telephone, mobile phones, apps, radio, films and also reach via print, walk-in services, thus leaving little scope for service gaps to reach out and empower them.
